LeAnne
04:33
|
|||
Sitting in your first floor bedsit
Dreaming of the time when you'd be free
A beautiful prisoner practising the perfect pout
I saw you scheming
Planning your way to that longed-for fantasy
And you will fight your way to fame I have no doubt
Taking the world by storm
Making it sit up and beg
But leaving me all forlorn
LeAnne - Like a beacon in the night
LeAnne - Like a flash of blinding light
The impact on my optic nerve
Was like facing a Sharapova serve
The beauty and the pain
I’ll never be the same again
You shut me out
Don't listen to a thing I have to say
You have your mentor whispering his poison in your ear
I tried to tell you, he's thinking for himself and not for you
But you're so focused on the prize that you don't hear me
Begging you not be cruel
Shouting as loud as I can
Declaring my love for you
Oh LeAnne - I know you're leaving me for good
Oh LeAnne - I just wish you understood
How many times you've knocked me dead
With just one shake of that perfect head
No matter what you do I’ll always be in love with you
Please take me with you when you fly
I'll keep your secrets till I die
You'll need someone to care for you
And do the things that you can't do
And you'll need me on your way back down
You'll need me on your way back down
Oh LeAnne - I know you're leaving me for good
LeAnne - I just wish you understood
How many times you've knocked me dead
With just one shake of that perfect head
No matter what you do I’ll always be in love with you

Another Blue Day
05:24
|
|||
Razor-sharp tongue, straight through my heart
Broken glass like a shattered dream
She turned to go, a tear running down
I took her hand in mine and closed my eyes
A mesmerising dream with complicated rules
Lost in the maze I forgot to play the fool
If that was plan A you need a plan B
You're dreaming your whole life away is what she said to me
The dust in the hall scatters the sun
Open door telling her this life is done
A mesmerising game of make believe
Lost in a dream I forgot to play the fool
You said we would dance by a baobab tree
And swim with the dolphins and whales off Tiree
Walk on the beach make a wish on each wave
But you took all those wishes and threw them away
And now
It's another blue day
You said we would trek through wilds of Brazil
Watch the sun rise over Solsbury Hill
Then watch it set over Botany Bay
But you took all those dreams and you threw them away
And now
It's just another blue day

Beach Bum
03:47
|
|||
Two days to heaven, that’s all it is
Two days to heaven, bliss is bliss is bliss
Taking no baggage I’m travelling light
Just me and my speedos posing in the moonlight
I’m a beach bum – Way Hay Hay
I’m a beach bum – day to day
Lazy days lost in the haze
Taking it easy in a hundred different ways
Sip a Corona, watch the world go by
Taking my cue from the big ball in the sky
Chorus
There’s a bleached blond babe in my field of view
She’s wearing so little she might as well be nude
Checking out the surfers and they’re watching her
Showing off their moves, cutting through the surf

I'm Still Missing You
03:25
|
|||
I'm feeling down and I don't know why
Spring is in the air sun is in the sky
And all around are couples holding hands
Doing things that lovers do
Maybe that's why I'm still missing you
I've got places to go I've got people to see
But when I get home at night there's just little old me
I wander round these empty rooms
Try to think of things to do
And all the while I'm still missing you
When I called you up on your birthday
It was just to say hello
But you were getting ready
And you didn't want to know
So I said goodbye, enjoy your day
And if you tell me that you're happy I'll be on my way
But if you find sorrow in his arms
You know what you should do
Come back to me 'cause I'm still missing you.
Come back to me 'cause I'm still missing you

Do It Now
05:54
|
|||
Don’t waste your time waiting for the right time
Just stop her on sight and improvise
Take your chances when they arise
Eyes on the prize
Do something about it don’t sit there and cry
Don’t sit there thinking ‘bout what might have been
Or life will pass you by…
Do it now - Don’t wait for the next millennium
Do it now - Don’t wait for permission to playeee
Do it now - Don’t wait for your inspiration
Do it now - Before you meet your maker
Don’t waste your time in reminiscing
There’s too much to do too much to see
You can’t rewind and live it again
So live it now
Do something about it don’t sit there and cry
Don’t sit there thinking ‘bout what might have been
Or life will pass you by…
Do it now - Don’t wait for the next millennium
Do it now - No fear – No hesitation
Do it now - Don’t wait for your inspiration
Do it now - Before you meet your maker
Do something about it don’t sit there and cry
Don’t sit there thinking ‘bout what might have been
Or life will pass you by…
Do it now

Talk To Me
03:17
|
|||
Talk to me, what's on your mind
What are your thoughts today
It may be late but we've got all the time we need
We can sort this out before I have to leave
I know the world can be a lonely place
When there's no one else to take his place
But given time I know that these wounds will heal
Believe me, I know how you feel
And when your demons call don't let them in
Don't listen to a word they say
Pick up the phone and call me
Any time, night or day
And talk to me
Pour out your heart, this is no time to be shy
I care for you and I don't like to see you cry
So wipe your eyes and tell me who and why
I know the world may seem a lonely place
But I'm here to prove that's not the case
And given time I know that these wounds will heal
Believe me, I know how you feel
Believe me, I know how you feel
So --- talk to me

Finally You're Mine
03:34

Finally You're Mine
Last night
I held you in my arms
Calmed your troubled heart
Extracted your confession
By promising we'd never be apart
And now
Unbuttoned and defenceless
Stripped of all pretences
You are mine
Finally you're mine
Please
Forgive me if I sinned
I only meant to save you
From unhappy introspection
Believe me when I say that I'll be true
And now
Unbuttoned and defenceless
You overwhelm my senses
And you are mine
Finally you're mine
Please don't lie
Don't lie there silently
Tell me was I wrong or was I right
Did I read the signs correctly
Or are you wishing you were somewhere else tonight
Wait
The smile took time to come
But now it's in your eyes
Relief can be infectious
I hope this is the end of our goodbyes
And now
Lying here beside me
A picture of perfection
Approaching the divine
Finally you're mine

He's been to Russia, China and Peru
And when he's finished London Town
He's coming straight to you

The Magic of the Past
07:50
|
|||
The magic of the past beams out of every lighted window
I stop to smell the perfume of the garden fires
Then walk on by, kick the leaves up off the street
And remember back to how it used to be
When it was tea and toast at five when hunger calls
And darkness falls
Doctor Who and football scores
Led Zeppelin and The Doors
These are the days, the days when I remember
When I think of those things we used to do
In the days of independance
When there really was nothing else to do
But live your life for today
With never a thought for the day when we'd be old and grey
I remember the impatience, the tense anticipation
Waiting for the conkers to fall
Now the health and safety paranoid officials
Are telling us to ban them from our schools
So they lie split open and neglected on the lawn
All forlorn
Polished brown like wooden jewels
Victims of this mania for rules
The clubber girls are waiting for the bus in slips of nothing
Oblivious to the chill in the air, It’s not fair
I used to be like them, dancing till the small hours
Now I'm nodding off by half past ten
I sing “Don’t you want me baby” and they say no
You’re far too old
But they say it with a smile
And that cheers me for a while
But I can still remember
All those things that I used to do with you
In the days of no dependants
When there really was nothing else to do
But live your life for today
With never a thought for the day when we'd be old and grey

European Girls
07:13
|

So don’t forget the pretty Poles
Those Russian girls, those gangster’s molls
Checking out the chicks from Prague
Into art nouveau and avantgarde
Moody maidens from Munchen
Bauhaus designer function
Monaco princesses designer dresses
Bella Milanese driving me crazy
Les demoiselles at Courchevel
Or on a yacht at La Rochelle
La dulce vida, Senorita
Spanish sisters la Buena vista
I can’t forget the chic Belgique
The look, the style, the cool mystique
The feisty Danes are never plain
And the Dutch are way too much…
Just too much…they’re just too much
The Dutch are just too much
European Girls
Montenegro black mountain state
Girls that make you anticipate
Lichenstein, it’s only small
The girls from here will make you fall
Bosnia Herzegovina
A girl called Lola, have you seen her
San Marino has got some chicks
That make you wanna lick your lips
Frosty blond from Bratislava
Sparkling eyes and a glass of cava
Icy Maidens from Norway
Framed in the doorway,going your way?
Venetian Venus big on devotion
Bridge of Sighs and sinking emotion
Swedish cutie Nordic beauty
And the Dutch are just too much
Just too much…Ah Yeah
The Dutch are just too much
European Girls
